I can't comment on news anymore. All I can do is verify my password, over and over.
It's sad and makes me feel censored :(
Which is strange because many of the other posters seem to be nonsensical racist haters, is this really truly a technical issue?
Will it ever be resolved?

I clear my cookies everytime I click the browser off. I can't post anymore. I did make a comment about the girl found 19 days after the clothing company colapsed. I thought it was faked too and all of us that posted our opinion that it was faked, we were all erased and the other sypathetic posters all got to stay on. This is very poor reporting and I have noticed that most articles are written by people who DO NOT have a Journalism Degree.

I believe I'm just about done with Yahoo. My e-mail has been hacked 2 times in the last 3 months and I cannot post comments anymore no matter how many times I sign in. See you later Yahoo apparently the new boss hasn't fixed anything.

My comment section has been a complete blank for about a month.
Nothing there. -

It's the ads. They are selfishly taking over our browsers.
AdChoice went down last week, and the comments returned to normal operation. It came back up, and comments disappeared again.
You can get the comments to appear by repeatedly refreshing the page and allowing it to load until the comments appear.

I made a negative comment about one of Yahoo's writers the other day, and now Yahoo has cut off all of my posts and has discontinued all notifications.
Guess they do not want us to speak our minds.
Looks like censorship to me. -

This is the first time I have been able to post. For some reason under this new format I am blocked. Any ideas how to correct this. In the past things do get fixed but may take months.

This has been an ongoing problem recently, they are trying to discourage discussion I think, just allowing people to make 2 or 3 comments and then block them for a day or so... it's absurd. I stopped use Yahoo because they are too strict and don't like freedom of speech. I've had many comments removed from Yahoo Answers just because the moderators didn't like what I was saying even though I also am respectful. They just have little respect for users.

If I can no longer post my comments or rate other's comments, what's the point of accessing Yahoo "News"? Most of the articles are actually merely bloggers personal opinions and not "News" at all. If Yahoo is starting to take this "News" option seriously thereby eliminating our posting/rating options, then Yahoo needs to start posting serious "News."

Me, too! Last night my thumbing feature became inoperable. I would click & click and the counter would not change, therefore my thumbs up did not register. Over & over this happened. Today, I type in my comment, yet when I submit it, it does not show. I am not sure if it's hidden or does not register on screen at all!
I don't like this at all. It makes me feel censored as well, and I feel that I am one of the most balanced posters and the voice of reason in many, many cases. And just like Mike, the real twits with nonsense to post up are managing to post up quite nicely. -
